Kat went to Lily's rehearsal yesterday and got to finally see what Lily has been practising at home. She is playing Mary and gets to carry baby Jesus...so frickin cute.
We surprised Lily with tickets a few weeks ago and she had been counting down the days. She really enjoyed it and was standing up and dancing and interacting with Mickey most of the time. And of course she talked me into getting a prize, her Dopey doll. I actually got off cheap, everything else at the booths were more expensive, $15 for a snow cone in a glowing cup...YIKES!
Another Thanksgiving and a another year Kat has the tree up and decorated, Awesome. Lily has started to help Kat with this tradition and loves her new ornaments Alice and Snow White.
All week at school Lily has been learning about Thanksgiving and how the Indians helped the Pilgrams, so they made these costumes and decorations....she is such a goof ball.
Lily's friend from school Taylor invited Lily over for her 5th birthday party. Lily had a blast and it was nice seeing her mingle with other kids from her class. The girls had a blast doing girly things.
Well we finally bit the bullet and got new carpet. It was our first choice but not Kat's final decision, but I think she likes it and is a freak about cleaning it cleaned. Be warned if you come over to be prepared to walk in socks, NO SHOES!
Well we decided to get the whole house re-carpeted and decided to do some painting and Lily said she wanted to paint her room pink. So we went to Wal Mart and this is the color she chose, and she loves it and helped paint as well.
Well it was darn cold for trick or treating around here, which explains why there was not that many kids out. But, Lily lasted it out for a few blocks and really had a great time. She still does not care for candy too much, she still hates chocolate.
This is Lily's pre-k class. I was so glad I could take the day off and be there with her and Kat and watch her interact with everyone. She would say hi to everyone by their name and it was so cute when they would waive back to her. She really enjoys school and based on her first report card is doing well.
I look at these pictures and just wonder where my little girl has gone. She is getting so big so fast. We could afford her to lose a little bit of her sassy attitude but that is what makes her special.
Just a few pics of Lily and Me on my birthday...man 37, just came and went. Kat and Lily had cupcakes all ready for me and a few gifts. Of course Lily only cared about the frosting part of the cupcakes. Winter is fast approaching here, Lily and Katrina both came down with a nasty bug this week.
This is Carmel, Jim got him about 2 months ago while they were visiting us up here. He has already come over and stayed a weekend at our house and Jeter and him got along fine, although the puppy in Carmel got the best of him a few times and he heard Jeter's growel a few times.
Well my little girl is getting bigger, she started pre-school last week and on the 2nd day when Katrina dropped her off she said bye and that was that. She loves her teacher Mrs. Price.
